modules

These modules use Chemkin IV (for laminar flames) and Fluent (for turbulent flames). They provide instruction in the use of the software and also provide insights into the physics and chemistry involved. The focus is on: the thermochemistry and kinetics of ideal gas mixtures; laminar premixed and nonpremixed flames; and turbulent non-premixed flames.

FLUENT is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package to simulate fluid flow problems. It uses the finite-volume method to solve the governing equations for a fluid. It provides the capability to use different physical models such as incompressible or compressible, inviscid or viscous, laminar or turbulent, etc. Geometry and grid generation is done using GAMBIT which is the preprocessor bundled with FLUENT.

modules

These tutorials are designed to be used online and run side-by-side with the FLUENT software. After you launch the web tutorials and FLUENT, you will have to drag the browser window to the width of the largest image (about 350 pixels). To make best use of screen real estate, move the windows around and resize them so that you approximate fluent:this screen arrangement.
